Empires rise and fall, but the stars remain the same.Renowned French astronomer and expert on Halley's Comet Joseph Nicollet is shown a bizarre map by a Scottish noblewoman who believes it tells the location of the Philosopher's Stone.

The Psychology of Screenwriting
Author: Jason Lee
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1623564735
Category : Performing Arts
Languages : en
Pages : 189
Book Description
The Psychology of Screenwriting is more than an interesting book on the theory and practice of screenwriting. It is also a philosophical analysis of predetermination and freewill in the context of writing and human life in our mediated world of technology. Drawing on humanism, existentialism, Buddhism, postmodernism and transhumanism, and diverse thinkers from Meister Eckhart to Friedrich Nietzsche, Theodor Adorno, Jacques Derrida, Jean Baudrillard and Gilles Deleuze, The Psychology of Screenwriting will be of use to screenwriters, film students, philosophers and all those interested in contemporary theory. This book combines in-depth critical and cultural analysis with an elaboration on practice in an innovative fashion. It explores how people, such as those in the Dogme 95 movement, have tried to overcome traditional screenwriting, looking in detail at the psychology of writing and the practicalities of how to write well for the screen. This is the first book to include high-theory with screenwriting practice whilst incorporating the Enneagram for character development. Numerous filmmakers and writers, including David Lynch, Jim Jarmusch, David Cronenberg, Pedro Almodóvar, Darren Aronofsky, Sally Potter and Charlie Kaufman are explored. The Psychology of Screenwriting is invaluable for those who want to delve deeper into writing for the screen.

Sport and Criminal Behavior
Author: Jason W. Lee
Publisher:
ISBN:
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Sport is filled with many paradoxes. Although fitness, strength, and other seemingly healthful benefits are inherently part of sport, there is also the constant presence of unhealthy and inappropriate associations. This dichotomy is quite prevalent in many forms in contemporary sport and Sport and Criminal Behavior examines some of the most relevant and thought-provoking occurrences of criminal and quasi-criminal behavior in sport. By identifying pertinent issues, including motives and causes associated with such actions, this work presents a comprehensive view of these issues while providing ways such matters can be effectively dealt with in contemporary society. Among the topics addressed in this work are: drug issues, violence, gambling, ticket scalping, hazing, fraud in nonprofit sport, homeland security issues and disaster preparedness in sport and intellectual property (trademark law, copyright misappropriation, and criminal implications). "The book is designed as an introductory textbook for college-level sport-management students, and as such it succeeds. But other readers will find it an interesting beginning treatment of a timely topic... Summing Up: Recommended." -- CHOICE Magazine

Beds in the East
Author: Jason Eng Hun Lee
Publisher:
ISBN: 9781912477821
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 90
Book Description
Poetry. Spanning across continents and generations, Jason Eng Hun Lee's ambitious first collection maps the poet's formative childhood experiences in Borneo and his subsequent transplantation and coming of age in the UK. Ranging from the lush, verdant countryside of the poet's multiracial upbringing to the proud, iconic national landmarks of London, BEDS IN THE EAST portrays through gorgeous psychic landscapes the persistent presence of ancestral voices and the desire to embrace multitudes. This tale speaks to an entire generation of people travelling between worlds: of departures and arrivals, love and loss, and of identities in constant flux. "These poems are tight-seamed, their subjects almost demanding fuller space. This book's mature imagination of historical figures writes back to, and from, great men of the past, including ancient warriors and canonical poets. Via the everyday pleasures and cruelties of childhood, it incidentally but importantly registers the natural and cultural life of more locations than tend to enjoy space in mainstream 'English' nostalgic poetry."--Vahni Capildeo
